Premium Member Contamination Nation
Daily we face different kinds of aggravation,
but there is one type which by man has its causation,
and it merits an immediate termination.
But because of modern “civilization”
and the greed of many a corporation,
it’s doubtful we shall have the consolation
of ending modern man’s contamination.
I’m not talking parasites...

I Don'T Know
I   DON’T  KNOW

So what’s wrong with saying “I don’t know”
When your poem is good,   and feels just so?
A technical requirement  to state categorically
What you have said, albeit metaphorically.
Like asking Einstein to place his  e=mc2  formula
Neatly in the...

Match
(15/09/2011)

We are fulfilling each other
No need conversion or substitution factor
As black and white in fashion,
We’re so contrast in gradation
But, yep, we’re a match in any occasion...

Le Squirrel Sat For Le Painter

His canvass set
And oils based,
He zeroed onto her providence.
His lips miming
Rhode Island here
Big Apples there.
She scowled her impatience.
Her eyes dismissing his.
Although,
Him noting her dark chocolates,
Sweet looking,
Cloaked as balls of fire,
And a posture gorgeous and erect.
And so was he.
She was a...

Choices We Make...
The panderer's grandiose smitten scheme
spectacular invention those calibrated scenes,
gradation of movement in unhurried steps
resistance ineffectual fallen to debt...

Marvelously sculptured are unscrupulous ideas,
lavishly displayed within bubbled galleria
tempted to chance overwhelming desire,
dissapating blazon our spiritual fire...

Corruption and greed,is not our human nature,
more appropriate are unjust errant ventures......

My Sad Story
We were at school together
Was one of our group.
But boys not on my mind
Too much studying to do.

We went out and  about
As friends do.
Gradually i noticed
A group became two.

Always together, 
Silently studying I know
We have exams to pass,
University to go.

We separated then
Each went our own way.
Meet...

Burning daylight





Burnt the whole daylight
and entered the dark,
Only to learn plight
of firefly that glowed in the dark,

Burnt the whole daylight 
to find the spark,
Lost in depressive fight
else had touched high as skylark,

Burnt the whole daylight
to hide the shame,
Of unfairly attained delight
else had not brought dis...

Lest You Yourself Be Judged
LEST    YOU   YOURSELF   BE   JUDGED

If my game is to  be judged, let it be in  the way
I  hesitatingly judge other people’s play. 
Perhaps  the ultimate judgement of my game
Will  be merely...

Premium Member Somewhere Between Wrong and Right
Light and Dark-
we speak in contrasts
easier to resolve
than the shades between
(fine lines of gradation
that truly define)

If we were basic color…
then amalgams of dim and bright
would do-

but our specie is far more elusive,
somewhere between wrong and right
everything really of old
and everything possibly new…...
